your replies,and will spend some time this weekend on the internet,and try 
to find  a manual or two. this looks to be a most interesting project. a 
simple car fits my skills well, and a small car fits my size,5' 2".  to 
every one,thank you. i think i will go down to the barn,pet my 
cat,midget,and try to smooth the rough spots on my car..     peace dee
